And that's why I still enjoy multi-day meets such as VTR conventions (or TRA or
[insert club name here] meets). Yes, there's inevitably a show as a "major"
part of said convention or meet, but it's only a few hours out of one day. The
rest of the time, you've got rallyes, autocrosses, tours and plenty of free
time to simply walk around and chat with people and really use the cars!
